Jean Gagné, was a professional wrestler and manager, better known as Frenchy Martin. He was best known for managing Dino Bravo in Bravo's time after his break up with the tag partners Brutus Beefcake and Greg Valentine. Bravo eventually left Martin in favor of Jimmy Hart. Frenchy Martin appeared a time or two as a "jobber," but for all intents and purposes this was the end of his career in WWF. His biggest claim to fame was probably his trademark sign that read "USA is not OK" that he carried the ring while accompanying Dino Bravo.
